Pause
Many a cause
Sometimes a short break
Sometimes a breath intake
Pause
Quiet claws
Stop for the station
Transitory punctuation
Pause
Roads at a cross
Short of words to say
Thoughts going astray
Pause
Damp moss
The numb feel
A life going still
Pause
Unsure clause
Too short a rope
Flickering of hope
Pause
Apparent loss
Screams that are still
Grit on downward drill
Pause
Spilled sauce
Palate gone wrong
The end of the song
